Scam alert!

The folks running this scam are pure dirtbags aren't they?

I mean to prey on Grandparents of all things.

But, I guess, they've must have been successful in the past.

Don't fall victim to this.

Scam targets grandparentsBy Dalondo Moultrie
The Herald-Zeitung

NEW BRAUNFELS — A retired dentist in New Braunfels received a
harrowing call Monday morning from a person pretending to be his
granddaughter in loads of trouble after a car crash in Las
Vegas.

The grandfather later learned he was only being targeted by a scam,
and his granddaughter was safe at a Texas college, as she should
have been. Local police said the scam is not new, and residents
should take precautions when receiving such calls.
